Goonstation Spooktober Mini-Contest 2: reJigging qUarters to be more spiNE-chilling
#1
...did you know that attempt to cram "June" into the title hit the character limit?

While voting for the first Spooktober mini-contest voting for the first Spooktober mini-contest is going on, let's put down our pens and pencils and switch to crayons, scissors, and hot-glue guns, because for this week's mini-contest, we're decorating places in-game for Halloween! Get creative! Turn the Chapel into a haunted cemetery, put a up a procession of ghosts and supernatural creatures in Medbay's waiting area, create a room off of Escape themed around genteel murder mysteries--we're pretty broad about what qualifies as "Halloween decoration", so do whatever tickles your Spooktober fancy.

Entry Guidelines
  • To be explicitly clear, this contest is you decorate a place that's in-game. If you decorate your real-life home, use a mapping tool, or sprite some Halloween decorations, that's nice and dandy, but that's not what this contest is about, sorry!
  • Hopefully there shouldn't be a problem, but follow the server rules.
  • There is no minimum or maximum size requirement. If you decorate an entire hallway, that's a valid entry. If you decorate a tiny little broom closet, that's also valid.
  • Again, we're not very strict on what counts as a Halloween decoration, so don't feel like you have to conform to what real-life Halloween decorations look like. Don't need to make inflatables for example, if you can get the real thing!

Entry Submission Process

Entries should be submitted to this thread as a forum post/reply with a screenshot of the decorations you made. There aren't any file size or file type requirements.

BYOND has some in-built screenshot capabilities, accessible through one of the menus in the top left of the game window. Quick-Screenshot, which has a hotkey of F2, saves screenshots according to a pre-defined format to Documents->BYOND->Screenshots. Screenshot saves a screenshot and gives you a prompt asking what you want the file name to be and where you want to save it.

From there, you can attach the photo to your post or embed it, which requires uploading it to an image hosting website first (uploading it through Discord and extracting the image link via "Open Original" works in a pinch.)

Multiple submissions are allowed, but only one may be entered as your official entry. Make it clear which one it is.

Deadline
Entries will be accepted until June, errrr, October 20th, 2021. That means you have a week to enter the contest. As previously stated before, after that, another mini-contest starts, and we'll have a week of voting for this contest by the community going on at the same time.

Prizes

For this contest, the winners are the top six with the most votes. All participants will get a cool medal, and the contest winners will get an even cooler one with shelterbee related content. I'm still waiting on a response from Gannets regarding stickers.
